Title: Metallothermic reduction of rare earth chlorides
Inventor: SHARMA RAM A
IPC: C22B59/00
Filed: 1987-02-18
Granted: 1989-05-25
Abstract: Rare earth chlorides and oxychlorides can be reduced to substantially pure rare earth metals by a novel, high yield, metallothermic process. The rare earth chloride feedstock is dispersed in a vessel (22) containing a suitable molten chloride salt bath (44) and a molten metal collection pool (43). Enough sodium, potassium and/or calcium is added to the bath (44) to produce a stoichiometric excess of calcium metal with respect to the rare earth present. The bath (44) is stirred and heated so that the calcium metal reduces the rare earth feedstock to the rare earth metal. Stirring is then stopped and the reduced rare earth metal is collected in the metal pool (43) in the reaction vessel (22).

These reflected beams are in accordance with the surface pattern of unit (10) and are input to a topological processor (22b or 42b) which translates this information into the geometric attributes of thickness, width and length. The exact count of distinct pieces of lumber of distinct geometric attributes is then transmitted to computer (28) as the unit's end tally. The computer (28) may accept related information through input means of a keypad (33) or bar code reader (34). The unit's end tally and related information may be transmitted via a bi-directional communications link (36) to a companion computer system which may in return transmit an associated identification number to be assigned to unit (10). Any or all of this determined and collected information may also be transmitted via link (36) to an automatic tagging sub-system (60). This sub-system is capable of printing tag (11) which is taken by grasping and stabling hand (72) which is further attached to movable arm (70) such that sub-system (60) may then automatically stable tag (11) to unit (10).

Title: Use of capillary electrophoresis for quantitating the concentration of protein components and of the total proteinin fluids
Inventor: WANG HANN-PING
IPC: G01N27/447
Filed: 1994-09-15
Granted: 1996-05-30
Abstract: A method of quantitating proteins in complex samples using capillary electrophoresis can be used both to determine the concentration of a protein in a sample and to determine total protein concentration in the sample. In general, the method of determining the concentration of a marker protein comprises: (1) adding a known quantity of an internal standard compound to a sample containing at least one protein, the internal standard compound selected from the group consisting of benzoic acid substituted with at least one halogen, producing a detector signal in relation to its concentration, and being capable of electrophoretic separation from the protein; (2) subjecting the sample and the internal standard compound to capillary electrophoresis to separate the protein and the internal standard compound from each other and from other components in the sample; (3) measuring the detector signal produced by the internal standard compound and a detector signal produced by the protein to determine a ratio of protein signal to internal standard signal; and (4) determining the concentration of the protein in the sample from a standard curve of protein concentration versus the ratio of protein signal to internal standard signal. A typical protein measurable by the method is albumin. Typically, measurements are made at 214 nm and the internal standard compound is 2,4-dichlorobenzoic acid.

Title: Ink jet printer
Inventor: GANDY JAMES
IPC: B41J3/60
Filed: 1994-12-14
Granted: 1997-03-27
Abstract: The present invention is an ink jet printer utilized to enlarge color images. Signals from a scanned image are converted by a color correction computer into control signals representing the density of the individual pixels of that scanned image. The color density signals are used to control the application of ink from ink jet spray nozzles located on a pair of printheads. Thus, the ink jet printer of the present invention reproduces the image on both sides of a translucent substrate to enhance the quality of the viewed image. The present invention is further provided with dual air sources to apply the ink. A first source is pulse width modulated to control the amount of ink sprayed onto the substrate. A second air pressure source is continuously applied to the ink jet spray nozzles to remove the excess ink that accumulates about the nozzles during print operations. The present invention, additionally, is provided with heaters and a wiper arm and sponge which operate together to enhance adherence of ink onto the substrate.

Title: Msture-dependent control of clothes drier - which requires no high-resistance charging resistors
IPC: D06F58/30
Filed: 1969-07-12
Abstract: Control comprises a capacitor which is alternately charged in a control circuit and discharged via the resistance formed by the wet clothes. On reaching a preselected residual moisture content of the clothes, the state of charge of the capacitor controls a threshold switching circuit. Charging of the capacitor is determined by a controllable pulse generator of which the pulse-duty factor may be variable and which may be in the form of an astable multivibrator. The pulse-duty factor determines the residual moisture content to be obtained. If e.g. the interval time is extended, with the same pulse time, the capacitor reaches the threshold switch point later and the clothes will reach a lower residual moisture content.

Title: Pneumatically transported material suction system - uses swivel fingers to seal flexible band against opening in suction channel or box
IPC: B08B15/00
Filed: 1969-11-17
Abstract: The passage opening into the locally fixed elongated suction channel or box (10) of the suction machine is sealed on the outside of the channel by a flexible band (20) held down so that it cannot be raised from the vertical longitudinal wall (13, 18) of the channel by swivel retaining fingers (44, 48). These fingers whose swivel axes (45, 49) are set horizontal can be swivelled from their vertical operative position in which they engage over the associated peripheral zones of the band (20) into an inoperative release position using control webs (53, 57, 61, 65) attached to the ends of the carriage (21) on a rail guide along the channel. A chamber which opens towards the band is connected by a pipe to an exhaust. The retaining fingers can be automatically swivelled back into the vertical position through gravity. Since the fingers are normally held by gravity in the vertical operative position the band is held adjoining the broken longitudinal wall of the suction channel irrespective of whether the suction unit is in operation.

Title: Twin tube tunnel drivage system - has tubes driven simultaneously same way consonant with surface subsidence in reciprocal settling movement zone
IPC: E21D9/00
Filed: 1970-07-07
Abstract: The twin tube tunnel drivage system below surface structures keeps the subsidence trough shallow by suitable selection of tunnel gradient and drivage system. The two tubes are driven at the same time in an area characterised by reciprocal and partially overlapping settling movements resulting from the tunnelling operation. The tubes are driven in the same direction and sense as the movements they are producing on the surface. The distance between the tubes is selected according to the form the subsidence trough takes and the section and size of the tunnel tubes produces a subsidence trough which takes surface structures into account. Pref. the tubes are headed out on a sectional basis, leaving wedges of rock at the face until the next pull is taken during the drive operation.
